Verse
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
KJV
King James Version
And there
is
a
word of Jehovah
unto me, saying :
And the
word of the
LORD
came
unto me, saying ,
`
Son of man, What is the vine -
tree more than any tree ?
The
vine-branch
that
hath
been
, Among trees of the forest?
Son of man, what is the vine tree more than any tree, or
than
a
branch
which
is
among the
trees of the forest?
Is
wood taken from
it
to use
for
work? Do
they
take of
it
a pin to hang any vessel on
it
?
Shall
wood be
taken thereof
to do
any
work? or
will
men
take a pin of
it
to hang any vessel thereon
?
Lo
, to
the fire it
hath
been
given
for fuel ,
Its
two
ends
hath
the fire eaten
, And its
midst hath
been
scorched!
Is it profitable
for work?
Behold
, it
is
cast
into
the fire for fuel ;
the fire devoureth
both
the
ends
of
it
, and the
midst of
it
is burned.
Is
it meet
for any
work?
Lo
, in
its
being
perfect
it is
not
used
for work ,
How much less, when fire hath eaten
of
it, And it is scorched,
Hath
it
been
used
yet
for
work
?
Behold
, when
it was
whole,
it
was
meet
for no
work :
how much less shall
it
be
meet
yet
for
any
work
, when the
fire hath devoured
it, and it is burned
?
Therefore ,
thus said
the Lord Jehovah:
As the vine -
tree among trees of the forest, That
I have given to the fire for fuel, So I have
given
the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Therefore thus saith
the Lord GOD;
As the vine tree among the
trees of the forest, which
I have given to the fire for fuel, so will
I give
the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
And I have
set My face against them ,
From the
fire they
have
gone
forth
, And the
fire doth
consume
them ,
And ye have
known
that I `
am '
Jehovah
, In
My
setting
My face against them.
And I will
set my face against them ;
they
shall
go
out
from one
fire, and another
fire shall
devour
them ;
and ye shall
know
that I am the
LORD
, when
I
set
my face against them.
And I have
made
the land a
desolation
, Because they have committed a trespass, An
affirmation
of
the Lord Jehovah!'
And I will
make
the land desolate
, because they have committed a trespass, saith
the Lord GOD.
